Stock SE Wheels. 17x7.
Stock SE Suspension.
Dodgy 'Triangle' Chinese Rubber 215 / 45 / 17
Little noisy, nice ride(good bump absorption), very sticky in the wet, side walls a little softer than the original 205/40 Toyos.
Fill out the guards nicely but front left tends to rub on dips.

I bent two of my racing harts in an enormous pothole about 130mm deep and couldn't get a sensibly priced local alternative ($3,000/set!!!), so it was either these ......

or these...... Image

So, I had to get these 17x7 and only 7.2 kg. Trouble is tho', you cannot see them!!!!!

Once pretty; now butch? :|
